It was as if Nagisa was in a timeless dream where he could only stare and watch everything unfold helplessly. The military marched into the street just after the dome appeared over the top half of the mountain. Unable to resist the voice in his head that screamed of danger, he bolted towards the mountain. Consciously or not, he noted the armoured vehicles and the impassive soldiers that blockaded the roads in an oddly sequential order.
"You guys too..?" Nagisa said as he came to a stop seeing his classmates gather around.
Kayano approached him first, "Nagisa! What is all of this?"
He really had no idea and he went closer to the scattered group. His phone beeped just then and he almost jumped out of surprise.

"What's happening to Koro sensei?! I can't get through to his cell phone either!" Maehara cried, his face red with frustration.
Ritsu frowned and spoke, "I'm unable to communicate with the classroom where my main body is located. All power lines connected to the mountain have been cut off."
Nagisa had a really bad feeling about this. Even the power lines had been cut off… There was no way they could communicate with Koro sensei, unless they went to the mountain themselves.
Maybe they had been too naïve thinking that things would go their way. Nagisa grimaced at the distasteful articles that had already started to roll into the internet, talking of how horrible the 'monster' of E-class was and how he had taken the students as a hostage this entire year. That wasn't true! Nagisa wanted to scream. It wasn't like that, Koro sensei wasn't a monster.
The news reporter spoke of how this master plan was made in the interest of self defense of each nation. Nagisa wasn't so dumb as to not get what all the twisted words meant. The media was clearly painting Koro sensei as the world's greatest enemy.
"They can't just go off deciding that on their own," Terasaka gritted his teeth, expression equally screwed as everyone else's. "What the fuck are they trying to do?!"
They really couldn't stand here and watch the world collapse into a mayhem. They needed to get a move on and let the government know that Koro sensei was as dangerous as a blind butterfly with its wings clipped.
(Maybe that was an exaggeration but-)
Glancing at each other with a sidelong gaze, it was as if their minds were connected because all they could think of was bolting towards the mountain to know how Koro sensei was. And that they did, sparing no more than a fraction of a moment to set themselves off towards their target.
It wasn't fair that the government got to take away their teacher and the idea of the classroom they built through so much conflict and resolve. It wasn't fair at all! No amount of money could compensate for the emotional disasters the classroom put them through. For the whole year, they worked their asses off just to make it work and the government ripped that away, just like that? The deadline for the assassination was approaching like a wild horse, quick and deadly in its stride. There were only 7 days left.
"Who are you?!" One of the men by the barrier shouted as they immediately maintained a defensive position.
"Let us pass!" Yoshida yelled, and Hara spoke with great difficulty between pushing the men, "We want to go through the barrier to Koro sensei!!"
